What is a transparent DNS proxy?
A transparent DNS proxy is the practice of intercepting DNS requests destined for a specific recursive DNS server (like DNSFilter), and sending the DNS requests to a completely different DNS server.
What is a DNS proxy?
A DNS proxy forwards DNS requests and replies between DNS clients and a DNS server. As shown in Figure 27, a DNS client sends a DNS request to the DNS proxy, which forwards the request to the designated DNS server, and conveys the reply from the DNS server to the client. The DNS proxy simplifies network management.
Should I turn on DNS Proxy?
Obviously, we should use DNS-Proxy to avoid network latency. It's a universal fact that most of the DNS-Proxy is deployed to get faster response. However, another factor which DNS-Proxy plays is to secure your network from malicious attack.
